Most people do not compile files, but individual function definitions.
It is unlikely that any item in your file will benefit from compilation,
since you
have not declared any types. Even so, there is nothing to speed up other
than the increment of the index in for j:0 thru N. The body of the
loop consists
of calls to functions that are already as compiled as they can be.
My suggestion is that you ignore compilation unless you are trying to do
numerical calculations, and find that it is too slow.
